Thread-topic: Another strange oil issue
Just curious, Bryan.  What was the oil pressure before you rebuilt the engine?  
Was the oil pump the only thing you changed (other than the engine rebuild 
parts, of course)?

I have a 71 TR6, about 6K miles on the engine. Lately I had noticed that my oil 
pressure was starting at about 50lbs. cold, and going down hill from there. In 
a 20-30 mile drive it would go to near 0 @ idle. I put on a new oil pump, and 
the only thing that that seems to have done is make it a little slower getting 
down to zero. I'm wide open for suggestions on this. Thanks in advance!
